Giuliano Stroe has six-pack abs before turning six years old. And
he's also in the Guinness Book of World Records before he can probably
even read it.

Though it's highly unusual (and possibly unhealthy) for a child to
start weight training at such a young age, the pre-schooler entered the
record books earlier this year after completing the fastest ever
10-meter walk with a weight ball between the legs, which is both both
highly impressive and highly specific. Since then, a four-minute video
of Stroe has hit the Internet and made him a viral sensation.

The
pre-schooler's gymnastic skills are every bit as impressive as his
weightlighting prowess. Both sports are national obsessions in Romania,
so Stroe should have plenty of options when he becomes a teenager ...
in 2017.

While its becoming an internet phenomenon, and its impressive to see such great discipline and development - I cannot help but be disturbed by it. Of course we want to raise kids to be disciplined and healthy - but this is the age for them to be a kid - run around with a sugar rush from candy - have fun playing with kids. Should they be really training kids so young like this?

Thats too much...Now a days for olypic or karate ,or other sport section ppls send their children for these activites very young age....Now a days ppl try to make a child old before he is old, don't crush him. That's what has happened in the world..... old people are dominating children, and they want to pull them out of their childhood faster than nature allows. They kill and they crush the child loses something forever.n when a child was not a child when he was a child... If a child is allowed freedom during his initial years, he will grow in strength and have enough intelligence to decide and to discuss.

I think it's the same as how parents try to get their child in some ad or serial or movie. The parents are trying to secure the future both for themselves and the child.I think gymnastics is fine but weight training for a 5 yr old is too extreme.

Its often a case of parents wanting to live out their ambitions that they cud not achieve themselves thru their children. Its robbing their kids of their childhood .dedication & discipline is GR8 but one shud not imprison the childs spontainiety.
